If I like the day after tomorrow

What other films like this would I like?
All suggestions welcome.

The peseidon Adventure 1972 version and 2005

I used to have nightmares about the Poseidon Adventure (the original) - the bit where the woman falls out of the lift 😱 and the ending which I won't reveal for anyone who hasn't seen it - excellent film

Children of Men is another good call - very bleak but gets you thinking, from the brilliant book by P.D. James (one of my favourite authors).

What happened to Monday is sooo good

Another vote for Geostorm, such a fun film and Gerald Butler is good.

The Martian is good if you want a happy disaster film with a great soundtrack

I also recently watched Plane with Gerard Butler and really enjoyed it. First decent action film I've seen in a long time.

Independence day

Ghost ship with the actor from the good wife

Greenland has some good moments amongst yeah right ones

The Day After Tomorrow a goodie

The Rock
Snakes on a Plane

Contagion
Children of men
War of the worlds (Tom Cruise one)

Was going to say The Impossible - already mentioned - true story from the boxing day tsunami.

I love The Day after Tomorrow. Also love Pacific Rim, Avatar, District 9, Edge of Tomorrow, Dune, Mad Max Fury Road, The Road, A Quiet Place, Snowpiercer, Interstellar, Sunshine, Vesper. Dystopian sci fi/cli fi. There are some good anime films in the genre too like Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind.

The Happening.

I am completely rubbish at remembering names of films, so had to Google "film with wind blowing people dying".

Independence Day

The Impossible

Mad Max (originals only)

I Am Legend

The Road

World War Z

Dante's Peak

Deep Impact

Terminator franchise

28 Days Later

The Road

And (If you like comedy) This Is The End

Random claim to fame, I went to the red carpet premiere of Children of Men 😁 it was v cool.

You breathed the same air as Clive Owen? Jealous!!

Flood on My 5 was mentioned earlier. Whilst worth a watch it's very TV movie level. However do read the book, it is so much better. I can't stand at the platform barriers on the jubilee line without thinking about it!

I know...we were in the front row. The funniest thing was watching the photographer's realise we were noone interesting and ignore us 🤣
I agree re the Flood. Good cast but the director should be shot..lots of attempts to raise the tension with "edgy" freeze frames. Also small early role for Tom Hardy in that. Watched a v crap one on Prime last night called Meteor Strike.

That movie was scary

Little update we watched the flood the other night. If anyone would like to buy peter kay tickets for the 02 then please let me know 🤣

Dh found by accident last night the snowpiercer (yes I will LTB for going outside the mumsnet list 😮‍💨) onto episode 5 and we are enjoying it so far.

But the Chris Evans version is better

Everest.

Love a disaster/survival movie, especially if it's based on a true story. The one about the Thai boys stuck in cave is brill too (on Prime).

A knock at the Cabin

I thought this was really good!

The Quake is the sequel to The Wave…very unlucky family!
